The gold medal in hockey coming down to a shootout is horsefeathering terrible. I don’t particularly like the 4 on 4 overtime either but I understand it. I get not wanting the other elimination games to go on forever for fairness sake. In the NHL, either both teams are in the same boat for the next game or, if it’s a Game 7 that goes forever, even if fatigue costs the winner Game 1 of the next series, they’ve got time to make it up. But it’s the gold medal game. Let them play it out. Even if it’s 4 on 4 the entire time, just don’t go to a shootout.

Counterpoint: Anything that keeps Canadia from winning a gold medal in hockey is good and wonderful and their tears are like a magic elixir that cleanses men's souls.
